Beer Tasting Experiences
Beer Sommelier
You might know me for wine, but my love of great drinks doesn’t stop there.
I’m also an accredited beer sommelier, which means I’ve trained to understand beer styles, flavour profiles, brewing techniques and food pairings – just like I have with wine. For me, beer deserves the same appreciation, curiosity and enjoyment.
My beer tastings are just like my wine events – relaxed, interactive and completely free of fluff. Whether you’re a total beginner or already love a pint, I’ll help you explore flavour, find what you like and have a great time doing it.
A down-to-earth dive into the world of beer
-

Fun.
Whether you’re planning a birthday bash, stag do, corporate event, or just a fun get-together with mates, my beer tastings are a brilliant way to bring people together over some top-notch brews. Choose between 6 or 10 beers to explore, with the option to add perfectly paired snacks to level up the experience. Every tasting includes my signature fun quiz (with an alcoholic prize, of course!) – because learning about beer should never be boring.
-

Engaging.
I’ve been a dedicated beer enthusiast for over 20 years, and it’s been a joy to watch (and taste!) the evolution of beer styles. Now with a WSET Beer Level 2 qualification under my belt and working towards my Beer Sommelier Accrediation, I’m bringing my energy, knowledge, and love for a good pint into fun, down-to-earth tasting experiences made for everyday beer drinkers!
-

Educational.
I’ll guide you through a variety of beer styles, breaking down what makes each one unique - from flavour and aroma to brewing techniques and ingredients. We’ll chat about how to describe beer confidently (without sounding like a try-hard), so you can talk about what you’re drinking like you actually know your stuff.
